Internet voting is SAFE: If the internet voting technology is executed properly, it’s improbable that it will be hacked, especially if the U.S. handles it like online banking but double the login procedures, and if the login portal requires ALL users to do this: 1. Use SHA-256 encryption hashing, and the user submits a test vote, and then have to verify that test vote using all the same credentials.
2. Use 2-3 step verification every step of the way. Such as google’s 2 step (https://www.google.com/landing/2step/).
3. Vote within a safe portal, that auto times out after 3 minutes, so no one’s vote can be stolen. 4. At login require 4-5 security questions to login. Questions must be changed semi-annually. 5. Use a blockchain-like ID verification system where each user gets to “spend” their vote once, each election, after going through a very safe ID verification process.
6. Down stream: Allow the voters to redact their vote if they are being held by a captor, or bribed, or abused in domestic violence at home.

Internet voting in 2016 will be the only way to keep the war mongers, reality stars, and self-elected shillionaires out of the white house. The U.S. needs to run a parallel internet vote to ensure the leader ship of the country is not stolen again.

Various U.S. Leaders and officials are traitors, and should be tried as so. U.S. citizens need to regroup and realize their own overloads, tax collectors, and county “officials” are the actual terrorists. Unfortunately, due to the heavy TV/statist school programming, citizens have come to recognize terrorists come from the far region of the Middle East. Most citizens can’t even tell you geographically where or why we a pumping billions into Israel and these regions… citizens acquiesce and watch the tax dollars disappears in the form of hummer exhaust. Maybe once the shit lords who are dumping the chemicals concede to themselves, in their own heart and soul, that they are the true terrorists, these perpetrators will have a moment of self realization and begin to change, or they may be too far down the path and never repent. I believe that anyone is capable of turning their life around to do good… and it’s never too late to change the path you are on. One can change their ways. Some of the criminals and cohorts behind the poisoning of the masses, it may be better for the U.S. if they take their own lives, and deal with it this way. Maybe if these so-called officials realize many citizens view them worse than they view 3rd world radicalized Syrian civilian militants – and they realize how many “officials” are terrorists, the dialogue will change. It should be a law the U.S. “journalists” refer to these U.S. employed perpetrators as terrorists, to emphasize the gravity of this matter.

West Virginia University’s (WVU) Student Government Association (SGA) is debating whether to use a blockchain-based voting platform for its upcoming elections, according to the college’s student-run newspaper, The Daily Athenauem.

The initiative, proposed by WVU students Ankur Kumar and Ricky Kirkendall, would allow students to use iPad apps to vote for Student Body President and Vice President, as opposed to traditional voting machines.

If implemented, the students argue, the plan would save the SGA anywhere from $5,000–$7,000, the difference between renting voting machines or purchasing iPads that can run the blockchain-enabled voting apps.

The SGA’s elections chair, Emma Harrison, was optimistic about the plan, but said she believes that the technology would need to be tested more widely before it is implemented.

“I don’t see it working for this SGA election since it’s so soon, but if it were approved it would probably go into place for the next Homecoming election.”

Objections raised

Not everyone at the college is onboard with testing a new and emerging technology for the election, however.

One issue taken up by a campus advisor is the fact that Kumar and Kendall have created the app they want to implement, called SureVoting.

“I love the idea, I love the premise. But I find something a little unethical about someone who is going to vote in the election being responsible for the coding of the results of the election,” SGA advisor Daniel Brewster told the newspaper.

Elsewhere, Kumar made the case for the plan by emphasizing the benefits of the blockchain’s immutable digital ledger.

“Votes that are entered in the blockchain can never be altered or deleted by us – the coders – or by a University administrator or by a student,” Kumar said.

Representatives from the WVU SGA did not respond to requests for further comment as of press time.”

What is the Sequoia AVC Edge?

It’s a touch-screen DRE (direct-recording electronic) voting machine. Like all DREs, it stores votes in a computer memory. In 2008, the AVC Edge was used in 161 jurisdictions with almost 9 million registered voters, including large parts of Louisiana, Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia, according to Verified Voting.

Where did this machine come from?

It was last used in Williamsburg, Virginia for the 2008 primaries. Due to a state ban on DREs, the city then switched to optical scan voting and sold off its AVC Edge machines. Jeremy Epstein, Josh Holt, and Rebecca Hulse purchased two of them for $100. They sent one machine to Joseph Lorenzo Hall, who provided it to us.

What’s inside the AVC Edge?

It has a 486 SLE processor and 32 MB of RAM—similar specs to a 20-year-old PC. The election software is stored on an internal CompactFlash memory card. Modifying it is as simple as removing the card and inserting it into a PC.

Gerrymandering (jerrymandering) is bad for the citizens of the US because it is a form of manipulation. We believe that if an internet voting system were to take hold in the united states, this entire process would become obsolete. Partisan gerrymandering makes the distribution of voters more consequential than their raw number, resulting in wasted votes. The US can not afford to lose any votes.

“American Blackout critically examines the contemporary tactics used to control our democratic process and silence voices of political dissent. Many have heard of the alleged voting irregularities that occurred during the presidential elections of 2000 and 2004. Until now, these incidents have gone under- reported and are commonly written-off as insignificant rumors or unintentional mishaps resulting from an overburdened election system.”

A purely peer­to­peer version of electronic vote would allow online votes to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a central voting register. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double­voting. We propose a solution to the double­voting problem using a peer­to­peer network. The network timestamps elections by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash­based proof­of­work & proof­of­tally forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof chain. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of computational power. As long as a majority of computational power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they’ll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof­of­work & proof­of­tally chains as proof of what happened while they were gone. AXIOMITY as the front end wallet, law creation & voting application holds XCP, BTC, VOTE, CONGRESS & uses them all in sync and combination with their respective blockchains. A VOTE token is sent by a legislation creation tool with combined cryptocurrency wallet. The VOTE is sent to a smart contract based election holding yay, nay and candidate addresses. The VOTE is returned to the voter after the election has ended due to a winning count or election time expiration. The voter is given a Proof­of­Tally count for each VOTE given to any election showing it as an active voter with a corresponding Proof­of­Tally count. This system allows legislation to be created, elections to be created and votes to be instantly counted, to implement instant legislation changes within the network.”
